These tools are ideal for professionals and serious home gardeners who want to cover more ground with less effort.

Common Uses for Long Auger Bits

From tree planting to boring holes for support stakes, a long auger helps you work faster and cleaner, especially in challenging or rocky soil conditions. The added length of these large auger bits makes it easier to dig uniform holes while standing, which improves comfort and reduces fatigue over time. For even more reach, our 16-inch heavy-duty extender can be paired with many of our augers, perfect for extra-deep holes or taller users. 

If you need depth, control, and durability in one tool, Power Planter’s stand-up long auger drill bits are ready to go to work. Proudly produced and hand-welded in the USA, our large auger bits are built for the jobs that require more from your tools.

What Are Some Common Applications for Our Long Reach Augers?

Our high-quality long auger drill bits are ideal for construction and landscape applications that require deep drilling. Use these long reach augers for fence post installation, foundation footings, utility poles, signposts, and tree planting.

What Are the Advantages of Long Auger Drill Bits?

Long, vertical augers provide extended reach, allowing you to dig deeper holes than a standard auger allows. These long auger drill bits allow for efficient deep-drilling that results in clean, uniform holes, making every landscaping or construction project effortless.

Do Long Augers Need Extenders for Drilling?

In many applications, long-reach auger bits reduce the need to use an auger extender. However, if your required depth exceeds the length of the vertical auger, then you can use an extension. 

How Can I Maintain My Long-Reach Vertical Auger?

Proper care and maintenance are critical to extending the lifespan of your long auger drill bits. Always wipe the long auger bits after each use, removing the soil. Inspect the vertical auger for any damage, and replace worn cutting edges with our compatible heavy-duty replacement blades. Be sure to store your large auger bit in a dry location. 

What Types of Soil Work with a Long Auger?

Our standard long auger drill bits work best in loose or moderately compact soilor clay. If the terrain that you are working with is compact, rocky, or frozen, consider a more durable, heavy-duty auger that is better suited to those conditions.
